Patient's question:
Five times a day, yellow stool with small pieces, except for sticky strips. Still fed with formula. Onset of illness: Over a month. Detailed examination results: None. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None.Doctor's answer:
1. Adjust diet:(1) For mild or non-infectious nausea and vomiting (usually without fever or other infectious toxic symptoms, normal stool without mucus, pus, blood, or no significant abnormalities in tests, or only a very small amount of fat globules), increase the frequency of diaper changes and shorten the interval between changes. Temporarily discontinue or adjust supplementary foods. For formula-fed infants, you can temporarily provide easily digestible foods such as dissolved milk or rice soup, then gradually increase the amount of milk.
(2) For severe nausea and vomiting requiring intravenous fluids, fasting for 6-12 hours or longer is necessary. Once vomiting and diarrhea improve, gradually restore the diet, starting with small amounts and thin liquids, then progressing to thicker and more substantial foods. Mild cases may recover in 3-4 days, while severe cases may take 5-10 days to fully recover.
2. Enhance care:
Pay close attention to observe the nature of dry retching and vomiting, and record the frequency and amount of vomit, as well as the timing and volume of urination. Change diapers frequently and clean the buttocks often to prevent urinary tract infections and diaper rash.
